“Weighted carries have been shown to have a positive impact on metabolic rate. Due to the full body muscular activation of the yoke walk the energy demand on the body is much higher. You can see increases in resting metabolic rate throughout a workout and some times after doing walks, which can have a positive effect on overall body composition”. - Barrbemd

“This shoulder complex is going to cause the lactic acid to flow like a river. Just what the delts need for hypertrophy. The shoulders need plenty of time under tension (TUT) to grow. That means longer sets with lighter weights. The main thing to focus on is stimulating as much lactate build-up in the target muscle as possible. You need to have a high pain tolerance. Lactate accumulation through muscular work is maximized when the muscle is under tension for 45-70 seconds. This complex will take care of that”. - T Nation
